Playing with Arduino, HC-SR04, servo, DC motor, motor shield, ESP8266 and basic robotic platform



Well all is said in the title.... I red a lot about all this piece and finally  I decide to get them and start play with...

So let see the different element


Aduino R3 
for the control part hosting command software

Seed studio motor shield
for DC motor control

HC-SR04 sensor (x3) + servo
  • to avoid collision mount on servo
  • to avoid to drop down
  • to see above
ESP8266 
for wifi comunication

HC-SR04 tests

to be able to use it :
1 : donwload and install the arduino "new ping library". See https://bitbucket.org/teckel12/arduino-new-ping/wiki/Home#!download-install and try the different examples.
2 : you could try to this very fun tutorial using processing software http://howtomechatronics.com/projects/arduino-radar/

After this test in face the fact that my micro servo is not very acurate so I have to find a new one.

Seed studio motor shield + Basic platform tests

To be done

ESP8266 tests 

To be done
